=============================================

Frankly, I've never been able to figure out the attraction of cruising
around with 4 or 5 other guys wearing orange life jackets and uniforms
on the hottest day of the year. No beer, no babes, no fishing, no
swimming, no water skiing, no beaches?

You make it sound like it's no fun at all.....well.....I guess it probably ISN'T!!

I'm not suggesting everyone stop enjoying what they are doing. I'd just
like to see some boating issues also under discussion for a change. Even
Lloyd's diesel for Christ's sake. I'm desperate.... the weather's not
conducive to being on the water most days so surely we can find
something to discuss????


Since you asked...;)

Engine will be delived to the boat at 9:00 am (precisely! - local joke)
Jan 31. Boat will be hauled at 9:30 Fri so I can pull the old prop,
replace the cutlass bearing and install the new exhaust thruhull.

Stringers are almost rebuilt - just need filling, sanding and gelcoat.
Then it's on to replacing the water hoses and exhaust.

I'm doing a lot of things that should have been done years ago, like
adding a raw-water strainer (in addition to the slotted bronze one on the
thruhull), proper ventilation, bigger, less convoluted exhaust, etc. so
the new engine will run even better.

Really looking forward to this - can't wait! Too bad Chuck's not around
any more - we could have swapped "new-engine" stories...

I might forego an M2 for a Vulcan, the 20mm variety, not the minigun.
Also, I wouldn't mind patrolling Chesapeake Bay for pay as long as I
could troll a few lines at the same time. Of course, I'd be prepared
to jettison the lines if the sh*t hit the fan!

Yeah, but let's say you have a world's record striper on the line and
the terrorists are attacking the Bay Bridge.

World's record striper or Bay Bridge - decisions, decisions...

There are two Bay Bridge's, side by side, in the Chesapeake so I'd keep
working the striper!
